Dancing on the Lawn... |

Sometimes in the still of night, ...beyond the din of day, Faeries dance upon the lawn, ...and in the garden play, A unicorn plays hide and seek, ...amongst the daffodils, With a pair of porcupines, ...watch out for their quills, All alone the tortoise sits, ...waiting for the hare, From within his tortoise shell, ...knock, knock, are you there? Up in a tree a hoot owl hoots, ...as a bat flies by, Flying backward loop-de-loops, ...across a starlit sky, Then from the east a kiss of pink, ...first hint of new day's dawn, As sunlight dances with the dew, ...across an empty lawn.

Tim, I could almost see the little fairies, unicorns, and the little critters you mentioned, just dancing around on these pages of blue. This was delightful. Thanks for sharing. "Love makes the world go around" |

Tim The deer like statues stood and watched the dance was such delight and as the sun swallowed the dark there grace was part of light [This message has been edited by Martie (12-02-2002 11:09 AM).] |
